Bipolar Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation for Ventricular Arrhythmias
Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022 A minority of premature ventricular contractions (PVC) and ventricular tachycardias (VT) have an intramural origin, which represents a challenge for conventional radiofrequency ablation. Bipolar ablation has the potential ability to create deeper and more transmural lesions and has been demonstrated to be optimal treatment in these cases.
